In a bit of a rush
Right you need a stepdown adaptor to convert 240~110v but what is the wattage/ amps?
is 39 or 45 or 50?
Need to know about to nab one.
Thanks in advance for any help!
If any uk owners are reading please look at yours and post the details if you can.

Thanks guys.
Yeah Just noticed on ebay the pins on the adaptors, well fingers crossed my white saturn should be in UK soon!
paid $70 for ems insured postage! Dam more expensive than the console. still worked out cheaper than a UK seller.
Apologies for stupid questions, just desperate to play silvergun again.

Although I'm living in Australia, I'm using this one for my Japanese saturn.

Works fine and is cheap.

Japanese use 2 flat rectangular pins, American has one fatter than the other.
Stepdowns cater for both. But usually they do not ground.
Best just to get a big one from maplins because the newer consoles require up to 100 watts and if you import those you will require a bigger one anyway. Might as well be future proof.
Maplins sell them as does www.keene.co.uk

This industry has become 2 dimensional as it transcended into a 3D world.

Well I've bought the console.
heres the adaptor I bought
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 54586&rd=1
its a USA~UK 45 watt 2 pin one, Please tell me it will fit the japanese plug or else I've just wasted money.
I'm worried now the japan plug won't fit properly if one of the american pins is fatter.
Pretty sure thats the same adaptor people are selling bundled with their japan saturns in UK though.
